I assume you already know how to use "Save As" in the workspace. You
select the object(s) to be duplicated, then "File" > "Save As", and give
them new names. Then you hit the "Next" button, and you'll be shown a
list of all the parents of that object in your workspace. By default,
all are set to "Reuse" the old part. Select the parent assemblies you
want to contain the new part, and then the "Use Copy" button. Then
"Finish". (Before you start, you should make sure that the parents you
want to change are "editable", checked out if necessary, etc.)
